The Concern: Piers Morgan’s column on Kim Kardashian’s revealing flag-themed picture shoot.

It’s definitely a tragic state of affairs when Piers Morgan has to slap us again into actuality (“ ‘American dream’ lady,” Sept. 7).

Whereas Morgan clearly states he isn't an American, we definitely want extra reality and actuality, as he clearly said.

As we proceed to maintain making silly individuals well-known, the youthful generations see this as a option to fame and fortune.

In the event you take a look at websites like TikTok, all you see is mushy porn with a smattering of “cutey pie” movies. Younger adults want function fashions — not strippers — as examples to look as much as.

Between the quiet-quitting episodes and being an “influencer,” children see the straightforward option to obtain as a substitute of an important work ethic adopted by success. It’s time to alter the narrative.

As Morgan reiterates, that is the final word disrespect to our flag.

So why would The Submit play into this cry for consideration from somebody whose solely expertise is her cosmetically enhanced derrière?

You're including to the plethora of pornography that's available to our youth.

I don’t assume the two-page unfold on Kim Kardashian did very a lot to impress readers of The Submit. Do I actually need to have a look at that super-sized moonscape whereas I’m having breakfast?

The US Flag Code, which many Individuals don’t even know exists, doesn’t deal with utilizing the flag as a backdrop. However anybody posing like that with Outdated Glory as a backdrop is disgracing the flag.

What the Flag Code does deal with is utilizing the flag as an article of clothes: A hat, a shirt, or Kim’s little peek-a-boo patch with the celebrities and stripes is certainly disgracing our flag. However I doubt that she cares.

Nicely, thanks, Piers Morgan. It’s about time somebody known as out the vacuous nonsense that the media are promoting and the self-destructive public is slurping up.

The Concern: Michael Steinhardt’s column on the significance of schooling requirements in yeshivas.

I'm in complete settlement with Michael Steinhardt (“Misplaced Technology,” PostOpinion, Sept. 6).

Two of my grandparents got here as immigrants to New York within the Nineties. Max Jacobs immigrated by himself at age 13 with no schooling, but by means of grit and willpower, he based the Detecto Scale Firm.

My different grandfather, Benjamin Koenigsberg, grew to become an lawyer in 1910 after which president of main Jewish organizations, such because the Orthodox Union and the Younger Israel motion.

But each believed that within the early twentieth century, younger Jewish Individuals wanted a complete Orthodox Jewish schooling in addition to a comparable secular schooling in all topics with a purpose to survive and compete with the inhabitants at giant.

Steinhardt is right. The state of New York is entitled to require all colleges working in its borders to offer primary schooling in English, math and science. That places no restrictions on the specialised research that the varied non-public or non secular colleges could provide.

The purpose is to arrange college students to change into educated residents, capable of make knowledgeable selections on the poll field and contribute to the development of society. It’s undoubtedly not an try and cease Jewish colleges from instructing Judaism.

The fervently Orthodox communities, which encourage males to father giant households however deny boys the secular schooling that might allow them to assist these households, are doing an important disservice to their college students and to society.
